This is 3 books by Paul Carter, a crazy and funny Australian writer.
'Don't tell mum I work on the Rigs. She thinks I'm a Piano Player in a Whorehouse' was published in 2005 and is a rollicking tale of what working on oil rigs around the world can involve. It is very macho and funny and his writing style is very easy to read. The book is 204 pages and in good condition.
'This is not a Drill, just another glorious day in the Oilfield' was published in 2007 and it continues his adventures. As the blurb says it sets an unrelenting pace. It is 240 pages with a collection of coloured photos (as evidence of the 'yarns'). This is in good condition but it does have a previous owners name on the frontspiece.
'Ride like Hell and you'll get there. Detours into Mayhem' was published in 2013 and continues the stories of his misadventures. This one focuses on trying to achieve 300 kph on an experimental motor bike. It has a slightly more sober tone than the 2 books above but is still a crazy ride.
If you, your dad or someone you need a gift for likes humour, misadventures, near death escapes and the like these would fill that need. The price is $5.00 each or the 3 for $12.00. Happy to post if you pay postage.
